You might GET MONEY IF YOU JOIN THE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST AIRBNB: http://bit.ly/1yFRby7. Your name and Airbnb hosts will not be public if you choose to be a non-named plaintiff. It doesn't affect your settlement or rights. It won't take much of your time. The sooner you join, the more it'll strengthen the case (according to the lawyers).

VOTE FOR DAVID CAMPOS BECAUSE...DUH: Campos voted to have Airbnb to pay back taxes. Chiu voted no. Chiu's Airbnb law causes tenants to get evicted (http://bit.ly/unfAirbnb).

WE WON'T VOTE FOR SF SUPERVISOR CHIU, TANG, KIM, COHEN, WEINER & FARRELL: They voted for the Airbnb law, which is literally causing us to get evicted. We thank Campos, Avalos, Mar and Yee for trying to protect tenants.

MAP ILLEGAL VACATION RENTALS: http://bit.ly/Airbnillegal.
Airbnb is reporting half their rentals. Help the Anti-Eviction Map get data. They protect your identity, and are looking to track landlords (not renters) who rent on Airbnb instead of to long-term tenants. All SF vacation rentals are illegal unless the owner gets a conditional use permit from the Planning Department.

I personally do not see how an ordinary SF resident who hosts a traveler impacts the neigborhood. Instead of funding corporate expensive hotels (look just how many Mariotts are in this city), the extra income will come to the resident - as this city is getting highly expensive... How can be tax retroactively collected on services that were not taxed in the first place?

MUNI and SFUSD need first a shake in managements as there is already enough level of corruption..

Filling neighborhoods with transients damages the culture, no matter what the supply is.

What kind of protest demands arise from people who can converge on City Hall in the middle of the morning? The demands of nonprofits who make demands on the general fund and want to maximize the tax take so that they keep getting funded. Most San Franciscans are aghast at the brazen corruption at play here and are wary of turning our residential neighborhoods into itinerant lodging.

Any coalition with Feinstein has got to be the dregs of society. She and her billionaire hubby have pulled more sleazy deals through government than anyone else.

Airbnb would not be an existential threat to neighborhoods if it weren't for the City's artificially constrained supply of housing.Instead it would be merely a nuisance.

"It would effectively forgive Airbnb for $25 million that its hosts owe in back taxes." Not true, The City can go after those taxes at any time... the legislation just doesn't tie the approval to the "owed" taxes.

More leftist garbage from the Swan. Obviously many tourists and businesses are going to benefit from this legislation. It's the protesters who stink up The City.
